    Well it seems after collecting cans and selling all the blood i could here lately i finally roughed up the dough to purchase the front end parts for my 55 Lincoln Capri to make her safe for the road and Round-up ready next month.While i have her torn apart i figured i would go ahead and drop her a little. Awhile back i ran across a thread here that spelled out how to use some later model Ford spindles,but can't find it again to save my life. Any help and or advise will sure come in handy right now. Thanks for any help

    hey man, I just lowered my 54.....I blocked the rear end with 2 inch blocks and shaved the bump stops...for the front, i cut a little more than a full coil out of the springs and it brought the front end down real nice. Good luck with your Capri!
